#Create tables in markdown

The simplest way to create a table in markdown is to use pipes and lines.

You can justify the columns with colons:

|-----:| - this is right aligned
|:-----| -  this is left aligned
|:-----:| - this is centered

If you use HTML tables and your markdown is not rendering between the two tables, you need to add a closing BR tag after the closing TABLE tag.
